Edited on Tue Feb-01-05 09:39 PM by Faye
i lost my last job over it. the girl i worked with talked to me like i was twelve, and she was definatly at least a few years younger than ME. she used to piss me off so bad i could have swung!!!! she made me hate the job so much that i screwed up and got let go (it was only a temp job anyway)

i know that sounds terrible but there was no way i could work with someone like that.

4. Nothing pisses me off more than being condescended to
I get it all the time here at college, when I have to interact with secretaries and office workers (rarely professors, they're usually respectful) who talk down to me because I'm a student. Nothing makes me angrier... happened to me in the department of parking services the other day. I'm still mad :grr:

5. Oh man
My friend was having financial problems and went to the Financial Aid office and the guy was so rude to her. He was all like, "if you can't afford to come here, you should leave". She was all crying too. That guy is an asshole.

11. Fuck cutting higher education funds
Gov. Rod Blagojevich wants to do that too, and he's a freaking Dem. Thanks for caring about education and intellectual enrichment, Rod... no, really, thanks.

13. I know
Keep the working classes in their place. They were brought onto this earth to serve the upper class, whose children are the only ones deserving of a fine education.

Isn't this fucking America? :grr:

15. Me too, especially when it's on DU!
I thought we were supposed to be on, if not the same team, then at least cooperative. But I have to think twice before posting or replying to something in case I get ridiculed. (That doesn't apply to the John Kerry group though, everyone here has been super nice. :) )
